for lack of a better word is good. we just write. great works. greek . and can. guess. at the. end. in my mind. will not only stay tells us but that other malfunctioning approach of this. audience is flipped out they cheered everybody in the eighties wanted to be gordon gekko but the thing is this all over stone road is a piece of satire nobody got it just the opposite all over stone was trying to send up the excesses of the reagan era michael douglas's portrayal helped inspire a whole generation of slicked back hair doos in double breasted seats adopting the greed is good eat those and pursuing the american dream as it had come to be defined now delivers obscene well for a very few well running poverty and misery down on many and serving as

a homicidal force for others because people do in fact die for lack of access to health care in the richest country in the world that's the us of a human consumption is in fact accelerating the instruction of our planet people do in fact die in wars waged based on lies that profit a precious few over five million children globally each year do not reach their fifth birthday because they die of starvation all of this is not because the system that puts man on the moon or can squeeze an entire library onto a computer chip the size of a thumbnail has failed to find a way to solve these problems rather our system without apology places corporate greed. and greed take back the popular phrase is not good now the question many within the occupy movement are trying to solve is this one what would it would look like that had a culture and an economic system that places. human need above corporate greed and

how do we bring that world into being who cares what it is called call it socialism call it real democracy now call it chunky monkey cherry garcia the world needs to change radically needs to change dramatically and it needs to change fast this documentary is an invitation for you to participate in that positive change frankly because we need you yes you. can so bad that well it's a very well to buy but makes it a problem if you just saw all the money in one place. and so i got you is going to

money is going to get fewer people than there ever will. be for a million years six who want to hear. the wealth of thirty percent of american families one percent of the wealth of ninety five percent of americans so now that we've identified the problem broadly speaking what do you think the solution is raise your hand if you think the way our representative democracy currently functioning bought and sold as it is by wall street and the pacs offers a bright ray of hope forward anyone to the very same problem anyone politicians know if they sit out spend their competitor they're going to when they're when the election ninety four percent of the time of the. so. they have no fear of the american people they fear the people who are going to fund their campaigns right so that means that you me and just about everyone we know has very little say over who represents us and little to no influence over them once they get into office for a process is rigged to throw an enormous amount of money. behind candidates in the

two major parties and consequently choosing the lesser of two evils is something americans have done with a fatalistic shrug of the shoulders for far too long to say the u.s. government currently functions borne by the people would be a funny joke if the joke were not on you mean almost everyone we know magine a world in which your single voice carried as much weight as the c.e.o. of goldman sachs and you're starting to imagine the world that the occupy movement is trying to bring into being it was going to be just not a unanimity we will be like a duke ellington jet orchestra. everybody got the only thing we needed to just note the conductor he just didn't put so much but it doesn't look. just like yes that's democracy in action at the level experiencing the horizontal community and culture and organization. was so radicalizing for people and continues to be so radicalizing because it draws such

a stark contrast up against what they're fighting and actually in their minds clarifies what they're up against more than somebody. more than it would be clarified if somebody got up and tried to clarify it for them thanks to occupy wall street there's a lot of new ways of organizing which is not just calling people to participate in something you came up with but giving people the opportunity to create themselves and to be there in a regional brainstorming about what to do so that they feel empowered in this movement it's also i think finally put the kybosh. let's organize a rally on a saturday in washington d.c. when everything is closed and people come from around the country and spend a lot of money to walk around in a circle and home use. what

if. you want to see. all these. people five fine. people but since i think very much for. i guess what you say but for all the government no longer represents the people the people are going to take .

credit. for. i. mean five thirty in the morning is

a comedy on most mornings early in the occupy wall street movement there would only be about fifty to maybe two hundred or so occupying the space but at five thirty in the morning on the morning of october fourteenth two thousand and eleven several thousand people were gathered there wide awake why because mayor mike bloomberg had declared that his own personal army his words the n.y.p.d. constituting the seventh largest army in the world would have victor occupy wall street and these thousands were there not just in solidarity they were in their arms with an idea some cardboard signs in an urgency to protect the young movement and many of them were prepared to go to jail trying to hold the space i had already gone to jail once since all of this started as an organizer with the october two thousand and eleven coalition i had been in washington d.c. in the early days of the movement and you can see me here after suggesting repeatedly i had met inside the hart senate office building that we find other uses for the money we lavish on our homicidal bull geo political china shop and the

foreign policy i was given to do not pass go go directly to jail card and in a few days i would be arrested again this time for protesting corporate personhood on the steps of the supreme court. that it would occupy movement all around the world because we love. working people and. that jane joined us from the grave that we have the fact that it was. occupy d.c. the occupy wall street occupy the supreme court not everywhere in my willingness to go to jail for the movement though i was hardly unique and with the thousands that were in zuccotti on the morning of october fourteenth it seemed that you're about to eclipse the previous one day record total of seven hundred protesters arrested on the brooklyn bridge what was it that brought all of those people to use a comedy that this. not be a revolution in the traditional sense but this is a revolution in the life of other people not the losing end it's not going to be

stuff like holy spirit james and pepper spray and kill millions it looks pretty nice is likely to run clean the you deliberately kill. in the first six months of the movement about seven thousand people have been arrested in occupy related protests for things like why all the fuss. and why in the predawn hours on that friday in october were so many prepared to go to jail i i i swear we were supposed to get cleaned out of the park we swept the show up park and then we took brooms and we took them to the to wall street to co clean up wall street i think most of the problems with the filth was in the offices there so we can get to it but we did a little victory lap and the police brutalized the cyrus a lot of people like you know they do that they have done that for trying to twenty

five years in this country during that years non violent confrontations with the police whether they be in asserting one's first amendment rights to assemble or uncommented spontaneous marches in the streets can be incredibly empowering the building experience an antidote to the years of disempowering and williams free speech zones when it comes to be the norm and yet civil resistance is but one part one tactic of the movement if you only saw the early stages of the occupy movement through the lens of the mainstream media you might think the movement was soley about clashes with the police i'm. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so small and you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything is ok. you don't know i'm tom harpur welcome to the big picture.

will two parties keep us politics a one way street. or will new voices disrupt the power of power allow. chaos if america changes trucks to a selection of clothes guides monday nov fifth on or to. the phone lines shall be soon which brightened a few. songs from phones to christians. who scream stunts on t.v. don't come. do we speak your language anybody will end up at the.

school music programs and documentaries and spanish matters to you breaking news a little turn a tip angles keep these stories. for you here. in troy i'll teach spanish to find out more visit eye to eye. i'm in sochi than only a city in europe i'm the host of the twenty fourteen winter the ticket. on c. thank you. to. saatchi. thank you for the. way a. dog days are. the pride days it. takes a common. so. so

. yes. like this.

but. i was young. people do not think anything. my father everybody has and i write. i'm in new york i am from new york city and if. there's no owner. that gets played. ok let's just be honest here for

a moment for some people this is and justifiably so a battle about a police state since one thousand a.d. the number of people in prison per capita in the united states has more than tripled we now in prison a greater percentage of our population than any other country in the world in fact the united states is only five percent of the world population has twenty five percent of the world's prison population in the u.s. one in every one hundred six white males aged eighteen or over is incarcerated for hispanic males that number is one in thirty six and one in fifteen black males over eighteen is currently in jail between one thousand nine hundred seven and two thousand and seven state spending on incarceration related expenses increased one hundred twenty seven percent of all spending on higher education during that same period rose a mere twenty percent is it that much more profitable jail or population than it is to educate and. i think that's

a great read and the nand their head lock arms now you know like take me to jail and you got to continue to do this i read about it tell you you know watch you continue to tell my brother and mind the leader of hamas i'm ongoing anybody else that looks like me in iran and he should be a scary thing not just for those you know you know people of color or minority can but out of us not that we have to live in a society like that. ok so depending on your geographic location your everyday reality may reflect the police state we live in two larger or smaller degrees but at least you have your health right at least you have your home. already made it was your shoes like that your so pfizer recreational mother. of every two thousand women are literally in profiting no matter what you're. going to rebuy action taking place right now thank you. my camera right. thank you you're welcome pal sometimes we demanding change on

a large scale has to start with small groups of individuals saying enough is enough like this group of individuals and western massachusetts who gather in an attempt to stop the bank of america from executing yet another foreclosure auction. the banks it's. a lack of government regulations gave banks enough rope to operate like cowboys in the wild west and they responded by lassoing homeowners with these predatory lending practices when the housing bubble burst bank of america got bailed out and those with underwater mortgages were sold out so that c.e.o.'s like brian moynihan could collect the year end bonus of over nine million dollars a week lou with that they have enough money to pay for a reasonable wargame today's values so this is something that all of can stand behind we believe that when folks have you know a home that they should be able to stay in that home and it's not like they're not willing to pay this is the weirdest movement i've ever worked in this way and the

foreclosure movement because we are begging people to take money and they won't take it of course occupy hardly invented foreclosure defenses people like grace and i foreclosure organizations have been toiling away at this for years but when occupy wall street went to east new york in december to march occupy our fair use more and more people around the country started to realize that there was another way to get back. was. back. there thinking i was right i think and sometimes demanding change in a large scale starts because even smaller groups dr margaret flowers is among the nation's leading advocates for true health care reform health care reform that would eliminate the for profit insurance companies and provide medicare for all individuals in the united states a former pediatrician and congressional fellow dr flowers worked within the system for years after their farmhouse i was traveling around the country and people kept

saying well how are we going to get single payer i was speaking around you know various states and and i it's slowly kind of came together like oh well unless you know as a as a movement even though we're in the majority of the population once a single payer system we're not going to be strong enough as a single issue. kind of movement to have that kind of political power and health care is really part of a broader social economic justice movement anyway and so we really need to come together bring our strengths together combine our strengths to have the power and so i know this in my talks i was starting to shift more into you know calling for a broader movement as a core organizer of the october two thousand and eleven coalition that occupied freedom plaza in washington d.c. dr flowers thought fit to attend as an uninvited guest a wall street comes to washington for health care conference i crashed the party with her i doubt they would let my big camera and so i had to shoot the video this impromptu meeting with the real death panels on myself was it how can we do that

and that i don't have a good i didn't accept a bill that it was because they can't provide i was. was out i was. fine i think you're going to have a snow cave or you are right in the real. bit. sally. we got downs but honestly and join protesters picketing outside where adair a scarlet shared her story of why health care was literally a life and death issue i came here because i think for my father in part because he

did suicide get shot it had three states. but because her life partner did have enough money to pay for health care i just take care of it and didn't want to ask because my sister and myself were fifty four years old this is the most considerate suicide that i've ever heard of he had to put sticky notes on everything he had borrowed from everybody saying you know we turn this for this person and cetera et cetera everything that could possibly be good not what one might but for shoppers now said please read my heart so my daughters will have to find yesterday that it was he says i'm sure you understand this is something i have you can't hold you know without but simply not. that's why i'm here on this forum can you not hurt people like every person that for lack of access to health care something's father or son or daughter thank you take a stand up not only for my heart but for all those like. you have.

it is a. thing. i think a public. thank you think even though my mortgage is underwater and my health care costs are going through this here is america i'll just pull myself up by the bootstraps and get to work nose to the grindstone will solve all ills but be careful out there if you haven't noticed there is a war on workers well underway between one nine hundred eighty and two thousand and eight the average income of the bottom ninety percent remained effectively unchanged at thirty one thousand dollars per year in that same time span the average income of the top one percent went from four hundred thousand dollars to over one point one million dollars per year so much for trickle down economics in

one thousand nine hundred a c.e.o. made forty two times that of an average employee by two thousand and ten to see those were earning three hundred forty three times the workers median wage and while the rich got richer they were paying less and less taxes in one thousand forty five millionaires get a tax rate of sixty six percent in two thousand and ten millionaires effective tax rate was thirty two percent or more gratian things look even better bank of america holds over two point two trillion in assets and pays less in taxes than the average american household in two thousand and ten g.b. reported five point two billion dollars in profit and was awarded a tax refund three point two billion dollars citi group has not paid taxes in the last four years and yet in the wake of the financial crisis they are deemed too big to fail and received four hundred seventy six billion dollars in taxpayer bailout

money and goldman sachs has spent twenty two million dollars in campaign contributions and twenty one million dollars in lobbying. efforts in the past decade and in two thousand and eight paid taxes at a rate. for a. one per cent that it was. thank you thank you thank you i was i guess was that you got the time it wasn't you that was nearly to me like you. think i wasn't thank us i was. was yes thank you but one could send out if you want but the debate is the twenty five years of the nothing but grief. we've been working for the. team to keep people in this club that they said we could put up

with to keep it meant that at night when the election i was the big thing would be the time to thank ye thank you thank you thank you i thank you enough was a thousand thousand who even knew was i was
